How Do Coated Header Punches Extend Tool Life in High-Speed Screw Production?

This engineering guide explains how applying TiN or TiAlN coatings to Coated Header Punches solves friction issues in high-speed screw production. It details the synergy between hard substrates (HRC 50-65) and thermal barriers, which reduce abrasive wear by 30-50%. The article includes a real-world case study demonstrating a 1.8x increase in tool life and a 20-35% reduction in scrap rates, providing a clear roadmap for procurement managers to optimize production efficiency.
